The installation of a photovoltaic system for the production of electricity from Renewable Energy Sources
The installation of energy storage system with lithium ion batteries
“Smart” energy management system for the production and consumption of energy and for the plant facilities of the unit, so that its Administration can manage all energy needs in the most secure and efficient way
Interventions and upgrades to already installed systems, such as replacement of existing heating boilers with heat pumps, installation of solar water heaters, supply of electric tricycles for professional use, replacement of iodine type luminaires with new LED technology products and electrification of intra-airport transport, the selection of which as well as the scope of their application will be determined through the energy audit of the plant facilities and the final energy study of the project
Certification concerning the reduction of the Carbon Footprint of the Installation in accordance to the Green House Gas Protocol (GHGP) and ISO 14064
Certification of 115 Battle Wing as Net Zero Energy Military Airport
For the implementation of the necessary projects, TERNA ENERGY will work with the specialized company EASY POWER S.A., which has designed, studied and manufactured self / hybrid systems for power generation and distribution, produced by the sun – which has been awarded a patent by the OBI – but also the formation of a technology platform that can ensure certification of NET ZERO ENERGY, in existing or under construction building infrastructures or installations.
